Feedback: Where in the world is Charles Pugh?

Jun. 28, 2013

Readers took to the comment section of Freep.com to talk about the Kev≠yn Orr-Charles Pugh story:

If I took leave from my job, I would at least have to let them know. If I just didn't show up, I would be fired very quickly.

I love Orr. Work or youíre out. Detroit has needed that for 50 years. Time for new blood and the right way to do things.

I feel bad for Detroit, but guys like Mike Illitch and Dan Gilbert give me hope that after Orr pulls Detroit out of the fire, Detroit will have a future. Instead of jumping ship when things are tough, the City Council should stick around, take its lumps, and carve a spot for themselves in the new Detroit.

There is no need to replace him. The council has no powers, and they do nothing. You have people quitting and leaving for another job. You have people just quitting. No need to replace any of them until their powers are restored and hopefully the city is fixed.

Doesnít this guy have friends/family? If the average person did not show up for work and was not able to be contacted, I am sure there would be concerns about that personís well-being. Some kind of communication should be forthcoming so, at least, his co-workers would know he is alive.
